Portcullis CC begin their outdoor practice sessions on Wednesday 13th April - 6pm at Duthie Park (Weather permitting!). All players of all ages, sexes, standards and all walks of life are welcome to attend and join in the fun!

This Sunday sees Portcullis take part in their final indoor practice of the 2016 season. Indoor practice will once again take place at Sheddocklsey Sport Centre on Sunday April 3rd at 10am till 12pm. All members old and new are welcome to attend. Portcullis are constantly on the lookout for new players. We are a socialable bunch who enjoy their cricket and we always welcome new faces. Why not come along?!

Once again we herald spring and the beginning of a new cricket season! Portcullis CC welcome another season in Aberdeen Grades Cricket and, as always, are on the lookout for new (and old) players to join our ranks.

It is with a heavy heart to give the sad news that Portcullis have finally lost their maverick talisman Muhammad Bilal Farooq. He has upped sticks and gone back to Pakistan. Although his presence will not grace the Aberdeen pitches no more the memory of his performances will live on in the lower echelons of the Aberdeenshire Grades.

It is with deep sadness that I must announce the passing of former Portcullis player Nitin Shetty who died suddenly in Mumbai last week at the age of 34.

Our deepest sympathies go out to his wife and young son and to all his family and friends at this difficult time.

Nitin was well liked at the club and fondly remembered since he returned home to India. He was not just a hell of a cricketer but a genuinely nice guy the likes of which we are unlikely to see again any time soon.
